Jorge De Hoyos presents a work-in-progress showing of his new piece, CONDUIT…

…To seek the void. To seek the absolute. To disappear so as to give space for other life, or to give up on life itself. To release so as not to hold on, or to hold on for fear of releasing. What is the pathway of a mystic or hero and what is the pathway of a wannabe?...

CONDUIT explores a vast range of themes from confronting the void, questions of spiritual direction and questions of global responsibility, to weight, light and dreaming. Like passing infinity through the eye of a needle, the solo performer attempts to reconcile a world of paradox.

Or put more simply, CONDUIT is about a man from the Southern California suburbs trying to use performance art to solve the world’s problems in a practical way but from a metaphysical perspective.

The banal and extraordinary become intimate partners in this light approach to heavy matters.
